If it's angles from the minor incident itself it's doubtful it'll be enough. Or is it an 8 minute compilation video of similar tackles that weren't charged or banned?

They should stream the disciplinary meetings I feel. That's the only way for true transparency and consistency to come through.
As long as we don't make a frivolouse appeal we will be fine, even if we make a srong case I still think its a 50:50 call and we all know thats in favourable very short supply when it comes to the saints this season.
